It was amazing, we received many nice tips from our guide and she even gave us an insight about the history, culture and not only about the gastronomy of Thessaloniki. We walked through the market and if we liked something, she bought it to us and explained the story behind. We tasted Greek coffer, many pastries, sweets, olives, feta, fish egg cream etc. I totally recommend it, it is worth the money, definitely!

The tour was very nice and interesting. Easy walk in the streets of Thessaloniki, seeing the beautiful market. Our guide, Elena was super nice and helpful. One note, the food tasting wasn't as we expected to be, in the market, but it was in a cafe of the hotel. Would recommend.
